Sharon Stone has said that a doctor increased the size of her breasts without her consent.

The Casino star underwent surgery in 2001 in order to remove benign tumours that she said were “gigantic, bigger than my breasts alone”. 

Speaking to The Times, the actor revealed that after the procedure she was shocked to learn that her breasts had been enlarged by a “full cup size”. 

“When I was un-bandaged, I discovered that I had a full cup size bigger breasts,” she said.

Stone added that the doctor had told her the larger breasts “go better with your hip size”, and that when she confronted him over the issue he said he “thought that [she] would look better with bigger, better boobs”.
